46. World traveler, like to check out the bar scene in each city I visit.
Wow - big and exciting
Beautiful interior with numerous bars and patio area. Staff friendly and the patrons are a mixed lot of both young and old and caters to a better dressed crowd. Clearly a must see on any visitor's list in Chicago.
Everyone's your friend
Chicago - my favor gay city to visit. Roscoe's has multiple bar areas, including some outdoor seating a moderate size dance floor. It attracts a fairly young crowd and the bar with wooden floors and rustic appearance is happier for those wearing jeans and a t-shirt. Roscoe's is always fun and generally friendly patrons make this a nice place to visit.
Yuck, street people
You'll definitely either like this place or hate it. It's quite raw.Nothing stylish about this place and the patrons can be aggressive. Very popular black hangout, you're going to find a middle aged to older crowd here. I visited once and quickly left.
Just pop in
JR's is a Washington staple. On the main gay drag, it has a diverse crowd of both the young and old. Many theme nights with various music videos. No dancing. A singular pool table. A great place to start your evening. No attitiude staff and patrons, it's busy Thursday thru Sunday. A fine first choice.
